Map Orientation
The map can be orientated two ways:
• North-up: North pointing up as you
would normally view a paper map.
• Heading-up: The map constantly rotates so the road you are driving on
always points up (as you see the road
through your front windshield).
“North Up”
“Heading Up”
NOTE:
The red arrow in both heading symbols
always shows the direction north. Push in on the Interface Dial
when
you are on the map screen, and select
Map Information . Select North-
up or Heading-up , or say “Display
heading up” or “Display north up.”
In the larger map scales (above 2 mile
or 3 kilometer), the map is always
oriented with north facing upward. You
cannot change the orientation.
NOTE:
For information on the available voice
commands, see Voice Command Index
on page 158 .
Destination Icon
The destination icon only shows the
approximate location of the destination.
This occurs because a city block can
have as many as 100 possible addresses
(for example, the 1400 block is followed
by the 1500 block.) Since most cities
use only a portion of the 100 possible
addresses (for example, in the 1400
block, the addresses may only go up to
1425 before the 1500 block starts).
Therefore, the address 1425 will be
shown a quarter of the way down the
block by the system instead of near the
end of the block where the destination
is actually located.
Tip:
When en route, you can view a map
showing your destination. Using voice
control, say “Display destination
map.”
